long reload time

[smoky ruin]

the skript takes 2.5 seconds to reload which is 2.2 seconds longer than other skript with similar size. Can someone tell me why?

i'd guess its because you have a whole bunch of long lines

the every 1 tick: loop all entities: doesnt help either

[smoky ruin]

would it help if i put all the every 1 tick: in one skirpt and in one event?

from all skripts

the one above is with out the every 1 tick: the one below with

[neat pier]

I would make a function to freeze entities instead of looping all of them every tick

[olive moth]

yeaaa

looping like that is horrible

[neat pier]

its pretty easy too

[olive moth]

especially every tick

[smoky ruin]

doesnt a function get called multiple times for one entity if it gets frozen multiple times? So if i freeze an entity with a function 2 times, wont two functions run at the same time?

[neat pier]

you can check if they are already frozen

or just overwrite the last one

[smoky ruin]

can i also add them?

[neat pier]

increase the duration? yes

[smoky ruin]

ah

ok

so like i make a function with the UUID and the duration that gets added and then i add it and after that check if they are already frozen?

and if yes cancel it

[neat pier]

possible, yes

[smoky ruin]

and that would eliminate the extreme loop?

[neat pier]

it would yes

[smoky ruin]

ok

[neat pier]

but id say it wont shorten parse times by too much, as youre still doing a lot of heavy particle stuff.
you can put parentheses around this, but itll still be a bit slower than other scripts

[smoky ruin]

well all the skript have that meny particles

but this is the only one that takes so long

maybe because i set one particle shape on load and all the others have it in the event

do i cancel a function with stop or cancel event?

would this work

    if {hn.%{UUID}%::ice::freezetime} is not set:
        set {hn.%{UUID}%::ice::freezeloc} to location of {UUID}
        add {duration} to {hn.%{UUID}%::ice::freezetime}
        while {hn.%{UUID}%::ice::freezetime} > 0:
            teleport {UUID} to {hn.%{UUID}%::ice::freezeloc}
            remove 1 from {hn.%{UUID}%::ice::freezetime}
            draw shape {ice::freezer} at location 1 block above {UUID}
            wait 1 tick
        delete {hn.%{UUID}%::ice::freezetime}
        stop
    else:
        add {duration} to {hn.%{UUID}%::ice::freezetime}
        stop

?

it doesnt work

i call it with freeze(victim,3)

i need help

please

[smoky ruin]

why doenst my function work?

[neat pier]

UUID should be local

Not sure why you named it uuid either

[smoky ruin]

Does the name matter?
